Abstract

The present invention relates to low dose estradiol solutions for oromucosal administration suitable in replacement therapy or suppletion of low estradiol levels and also for preventing, alleviating or treating symptoms associated with low endogenous levels of estradiol in female subjects.

Description

The estradiol compositions of oral mucosa liquid
Technical field
The present invention relates to low dose of estradiol solution, it is for being adapted at the oral mucosa administration supplementing of alternative medicine or low estradiol level, and for the symptom of preventing, alleviating or treatment is relevant to the low level of estradiol of female patient.
Technical background
That current estradiol therapy comprises is oral, percutaneous, injection and vagina preparation.Percutaneous transmits and comprises patch, gel, lotion and spraying, and vagina product comprises suppository, cream and ring.
Estradiol, during as tablet, pill or capsule oral, in gastrointestinal absorption and in liver after metabolism (first pass metabolism), major part changes into estrone.This causes the unbalance of estradiol/estrone ratio, and this ratio is generally 1:1 in premenstrual women.This unbalance variation that mainly can cause lipid and thrombin.Parenteral product (percutaneous, vagina) has been avoided this liver first pass metabolism, and is therefore considered to the first-selection of estradiol suppletion.
Conventionally, it may be wise using the hormone estradiol of lowest dose level, because overdose may cause the side effect relevant to non-physiologic hormonal readiness.The parenteral product of low dosage is first-selected, because the low dosage of (1) administration, the physiological ratio between (2) estradiol and metabolite estrone level thereof, and the detrimental effect risk of (3) so reduction.Because endometrium does not very have hypertrophy during the estradiol of low dosage in administration, therefore, when relative treatment (continuously or circulation co-administered progestogen) is not absolute needs, it can be also useful using low-down dosage.
In the research of the estradiol product to new, considered parenteral administration, comprise the product for nose and oral mucosa administration.US5955098 discloses cheek aerosol spray, and it comprises propellant 50-95%, non-polar solven 5-50%, active pharmaceutical compounds 0.001-15% (comprising estradiol) and flavoring agent 0.05-5%.US6110486 discloses and has contained the cheek spraying that is dissolved in the estradiol in acceptable polar solvent on materia medica, and in the % by weight of compositions, it comprises polar solvent 75-99.8%, reactive compound 0.68-40%.As the solvent for spraying, used low-molecular-weight alcohols and the polyalcohols of 200-1000MW (preferably 200-600), and also had low-molecular-weight alcohols and polyalcohols, as G & W.Illustrational is the spray agent that contains estradiol and 85% Polyethylene Glycol.Yet this solvent has bitter smell of scorching in mouth, mainly the composition based on such forms spraying, for life-time service, acceptable poor.
US2011/0097405 discloses a kind of oral mucosa estradiol product, and it is mainly to absorb in oral cavity, rather than in gastrointestinal tract.It is water-solubility membrane, is called Oryza glutinosa charta (wafer).The Oryza glutinosa charta fast quick-dissolving agent in mouth that contains like this low dose of estradiol, discharges estradiol thus, and it can be absorbed by oral mucosa approach subsequently.The cheek sheet that comprises estradiol is disclosed in EP0371466 and WO2010/089078.The medicated paper that contains estradiol and cyclodextrin for oral mucosa administration is disclosed in EP1867321.
The preparation of 17 beta estradiols of the aqueous solution of using for nose and/or the DM-β-CD complex of progesterone has been described in EP0349091.A kind of such preparation that contains 17 beta estradiols compound in methyl-β-cyclodextrin has allowed with trade name Aerodiol tMfor medical.This nose spray product, with the low dosage administration of 300 μ g/ days, equally effective with 2mg oral tablet/sky in treatment menopausal symptom.It demonstrates the side effect of reduction, that is, less mazalgia outbreak and drug withdrawal are hemorrhage.In addition, reported to some lipid parameter the beneficial effect to the mark of bone resorption, bone formation and bone mineral density.Finally, found to compare with oral medication, used intranasal administration estradiol, tenderness of breasts sense is lower.
Due to the side effect of frequent nasal administration, recommend Aerodiol tMbe administered once every day with high dose, causes high peak estradiol level.In 10-30min, reach these levels, and after administration in approximately two hours level fall 10% (Devissaguet etc., the Eur.J.Drug Metabol.Pharmacokinetics1999 to peak value after rise; 24:265-271).This means Aerodiol of intranasal administration every day tMcausing " (pulsatile) of beating " spectrum, comprise large peak every day, is then that wherein estradiol level remains on the low-level stage.By the Aerodiol of aequum tMpeak level after nose spray delivery 300 μ g estradiol reaches the value of 1400pg/l.The normal estradiol level of each chemical examination is slightly different, but scope is 100-500pg/ml in menstrual cycle process.This means and use nose Aerodiol tMthe peak level of the 1400pg/ml obtaining is than high approximately 3 times of the highest normal level of Pre-menopausal Women.
Another defect relevant to nasal administration be as cause in the flu or irritated situation of watery nasal discharge or nasal obstruction, approaching nasal mucosa will be hindered.This causes inconsistent snuffing to be received, or does not even have snuffing to receive.Aerodiol tMproduct feature instructed in this case, patient can pass through the Aerodiol of oral mucosa administration doubling dosage tM, to reach similar estradiol serum levels.
In addition, nasal administration can produce local side effects in nose, as local excitation, itch, watery nasal discharge (rhinorrhoea) sneeze and epistaxis.Repeatedly nasal administration has increased these undesirable side effect.
First object of the present invention is to avoid nasal administration and the relative side effect of estradiol.
Second object of the present invention is to provide the estradiol compositions for oral mucosa administration, and it does not need the estradiol of administration high dose, as for example, and oral mucosa administration Aerodiol tMthe doubling dosage needing.
In addition, the object of this invention is to provide the new dosage for estradiol administration, it provides the physiology's pharmacokinetics spectrum that reaches normal estradiol blood plasma level.A special object has been to provide the dosage with low estradiol peak level, particularly high estradiol level is remained on to the scheme below 500pg/ml, and the peak serum levels of having avoided the existing nasal preparation of administration to see.
A further object of the invention is to provide the new and improved dosage form that comprises low dose of estradiol preparation, be used for being applicable to oral mucosa, its (1) has transmitted similar to nasal administration or better bioavailability, (2) providing thus can be by the dosage form of dosage personalization, and (3) have medicine frequency flexibly and given better patient's compliance with (4).

embodiment 6: estradiol level during administration solution of the present invention
The scope of normal estradiol level represents (272ng/l=272pg/ml=1nmol/l) with the estradiol of ng/l or pg/ml.
In the women of childbearing age, during the different piece of menstrual cycle, normal estradiol level scope is 100-500pg/ml.
At perimenopause, estradiol level, lower than 100pg/ml, at postmenopause, is down to 10-20pg/ml.Value scope lower than the normal estradiol level of 100pg/ml is relevant to upsurge, and can send the signal of menopause.
In the independent situation of postmenopausal women, carry out these experiments.Administration (spraying by the cheek described in administration embodiment 1 and 3) is 30 minutes (25-35 minute) after the estradiol of dosage several times, has measured the serum levels of estradiol.Result:
The raising of finding the estradiol serum levels of every 10 μ g estradiol dosage changes between 40-50pg/ml.For example, every 150 μ g estradiol dosage rises to about 700pg/ml.
By these levels with from the use nose Aerodiol of document tMthe level obtaining is compared, Aerodiol tMit is the aqueous solution of estradiol-cyclodextrin complexes.Nose spraying (each nostril once) as 2 150 μ g gives, after the estradiol of 300 μ g dosage, to use Aerodiol tMthe average peak serum levels (Cmax) obtaining is approximately 1400pg/ml, and spray after 150 μ g estradiol at single nose, this level is (Devissaguet etc., Eur.J.Drug Metabol.Pharmacokinetics1999 between 600-800pg/ml; 24:265-271).
The serum estradiol level obtaining after oral mucosa administration solution of the present invention is closely similar, shows estradiol content and the nasal administration products A erodiol of the oral mucosa spray absorber from oral cavity tMtime the estradiol content that absorbs in nose similar.
Yet, disclosed Aerodiol tMproduct feature disclose by oral mucosa approach take (nasal obstruction women in) Aerodiol tMtime, estradiol absorption and therefore Cmax and AUC are down to 50%.The women of nasal obstruction must take the Aerodiol of double content tMspraying.The good twice of estradiol that this means the solution of the present invention absorbing via oral mucosa approach, this is surprising result (table 1).
table 1: use the AUC of estradiol and the comparison of Cmax of similar dosage
In other embodiments, 4 postmenopausal womens have been accepted cheek spraying 2 * 25 μ l estradiol 0.2% (embodiment 2), represent the estradiol of 100 μ g dosage.The serum levels following (table 2) of the estradiol in 3 hours processes:
table 2
Conclusion:
Result shows that average estradiol level was kept above 100pg/ml over 3 hours; represent to use the spray bottle that contains solution of the present invention; the therapeutic regimen of the estradiol that comprises the 100 μ g dosage by oral mucosa administration is just being protected women to avoid upsurge to surpass 3 hours, upsurge and Horizontal correlation lower than 100pg/ml.If upsurge is relevant to the estradiol level lower than 50pg/ml, this protection is even longer.
In addition, give oral mucosa dosage 2-4 time of 100 μ g every day, while using the dosing interval of 3-4 hour, for the most of the time of that day, by protection women avoid to lower than 50 or the relevant upsurge of the estradiol level of 100pg/ml.
Result also provides evidence, and oral mucosa is administered twice, respectively does for oneself for three times or four times after the estradiol of 150 μ g, 100 μ g and 75 μ g, and the AUC of measurement (serum levels area under a curve) uses 300 μ g nose estradiol (Aerodiol with nose estradiol tM) after total AUC roughly similar.This shows the nose Aerodiol that the oral mucosa estradiol spraying described in the present invention and calendar year 2001 have been ratified by administrative organization in Europe tMbioequivalent.
